About Kathy

Kathy Holloman is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with ten years of experience helping people facing anxiety, stress, depression, and relationship strain. She is calm and direct in sessions, and aims to create a space where clients can name what feels overwhelming and begin to feel steadier. Kathy supports people coping with panic attacks and obsessive-compulsive patterns, among other concerns.

She draws connections between current struggles and past experiences to make sense of difficult feelings. Sessions focus on understanding what keeps symptoms going and on practical steps to reduce their impact. Kathy often helps clients who carry heavy shame, guilt, or the aftermath of sexual assault and abuse to find moments of safety and self-acceptance.

Kathy has worked with young adults navigating self-esteem, communication, and impulsivity issues. She also offers support for mood disorders, trauma responses, and challenges related to prejudice and discrimination. Her style is compassionate and straightforward, aiming to help people break cycles that limit daily life.

In the room she encourages learning small skills that can be practiced between sessions. She supports people through self-harm urges and intense anxiety by helping them identify coping options that fit their routine. Kathy emphasizes building healthier ways of relating to oneself and to others over time.

She practices in South Carolina and carries the LPC credential listed after her name. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not take international clients. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step are used to connect with her services.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online care

Many clients benefit from approaches that focus on skills and exposure work to reduce panic and anxiety. Cognitive strategies involve identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them in everyday situations to lower fear and avoidance. Behavioral techniques include graded exposure to feared sensations or places to help people regain confidence and reduce panic responses.

Trauma-focused work helps people process painful memories and the emotions tied to them. This can involve grounding skills to manage overwhelming feelings and gradual processing to lessen trauma's hold on daily life. Both approaches aim to give clear steps a person can use between sessions to notice change.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to match techniques to their goals, symptoms, and comfort level. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps and what feels doable for the client.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use skills learned in sessions during real-world moments, which supports faster application of new coping strategies.
